$l.00; dressed ducks 81 90 per pair The

Train Robbers Surprised.

Train robbers in Texas have so long been accustomed to running things their own way that the radical change recently inaugurated by an express messenger named J. +. Smith must have been a great surprise 10 them. Heretofore express messengers have been in the habit of throwing up their hands at the command of a train robber, with an alacr,ty that made the [. I. smile. No thought of attempting to defend the property cons gned 10 his care seemed to enter the messenger k head. That made the robbers careless. we suppose. On the night of October fl Messenger Smith was running from Fl Paso to San Antonio. The train stopped. pistol shots were fired, and when Smith turned down his light and got down to see what was the matter, the buccaneers of the rail ordered him back to light up again. in order 10 facili- ate the business of exploring the safe. As the messenger was climb ng in his hand dropped on the handle of a revolver that he had dropped on the floor of the car in his haste. and turn rng he dropped the robber in the most natural way in the world. Then he proceeded to the corner of the car and picked up shotgun which stood there doing nothing at all, and with it pick ed of another robber who was careless ly exposing himself Both robbers were killed. and the rewards won by Smith aggregate S5 800. which wasn't { bad nights work. for Smith. -TeraS 1 sffitaQs.

 ANIMAL LONGEVITY.
An Elderly Tsrautuia and an Aged
 Queen Bee.


 In an interesting communication read by the Rev. Dr. H. C. McCook be- fore the last meeting of the Academy of Natural Scenes on the possibilities of prolonged life among the lower or ders of animals. an account was given of the life history of a fine specimen oi the spider, commonly known as tho American tarantula. The animal wal gwen to him in 1882 by Dr. Joseph Leidy. It was then apparently eigb- teen months or two years old. and II lived in captivity until July of the pres ent year. At the period of it's death, therefore, 1t must have been at least seven years old. and may have been eight. having thus attained the distnc' ton of being the most aged spider known 10 science. How long thia species and other spiders generally livd in their natural habitat IS not known. but human protection in the present in' stance probably aided to prolong life. It was kept first in glass globe and afterward in wooden box, with glaz' ed sides and sliding glass door at the top. One end was filled with dry soil which was slightly competed and heaped up; the other end was sparselv covered with earth. It was at all times lberally suppl ed with water and it's food consisted of live flies. grasshoppers and locusts. During con fnement the tarantula shed it's skin several times, process apgar- ently attended with some danger. as 1t was during such change the creature died. and once before. on similar oe- casion. it was found apparently dead. although it afterward revived. It IS possible that it was too much exhaust ed by long previous fasting to end're the severe strain which evidently js laid upon the organism in the act of molt- ing. The spring of 1886 was back ward one, and some difficulty was ex- perienced in procuring insects for food from the immediate neighborhood. The annual supply of grasshoppers and locusts was very late, and it may be that had the spider been strengthened by few weeks generous feeding. previous to it's last mott, it m ght have been still alive.
 ' In connection with the general sub jcct of the prolonged life of insects, Dr. McCook stated that during recent visit to Sir John Lubbock at hs hotse in London he inquired after a queen of the fusous ant which he had seen in an artificial formicary six years ago, it being then nearly eight years old. He was told by his host that it had died the day before. having at the time reached the wonderful age of more than thirteen years. She was still attended by her circle of courliers. Some of them were licking the dead queen or touching her with their antenn@ and making other demonstrations, as though soliciting her attention or desir ng 10 wake her out of sleep. It was eerta h. ly touching sight 10 witness these faithful attendants surrounding tho dead body of one who so long pres d. ed over the maternal destinies of inc colony. and seeking by their caresses to evoke the attent on which never again could respond to their solcita- tions.-fhtIadelphsa Ledger.
